Genocide
A certain aspect of war I have a particular interest in, genocide,
it’s a hideous monstrosity which really highlights the reality of what humans
can do, in many ways, genocide is far worse then war, rather than a battle,
it’s a massacre, a true display of horror.
I was worried at first how I would portray the horror of
genocide visually, without causing offence, however I had decided the only way
to visually explain the severity of how bad genocide is, I chose to use fairly graphic
imagery, such as images of bodies floating in a river, people hacked into
pieces, and other imagery which may offend some people.
I have chosen to proceed to produce my final project based
on genocide.
Initially I was anxious about obtaining primary research, as
my work has been predominantly secondary research and I am not able to visit
such places as the gas chambers ion Germany or the tutu tribe in Rwanda.
However, as my project is based on the nature of war, as
long as I can capture the essence of the occurrences in my work, I can justify
not using genuine representations of the events as I have done with my project
based on Greek mythology.
